Meet Diego De Vera

We had the good fortune of connecting with Diego De Vera and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Diego, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I decided to start my own business because I am passionate about fitness , fighting and martial arts , and I saw a significant gap in the market that I believed I could fill with a unique solution. I have always had an entrepreneurial spirit and a strong desire to create something of my own. Starting a business not only allows me to be my own boss but also gives me the freedom to innovate and make decisions independently. I saw it as an opportunity for personal growth, fulfillment, and the chance to make a positive impact in the industry, after 30 years of martial arts and fitness experience, i decided to open KO ZONE 18 years ago

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
My business, KO ZONE, stands out from others due to we care about the people, our members are not numbers, they are literraly family, some kids who started 17 years ago when we opened , today are instructors in our gym and others gyms around, and some of them , they bring they own kids to follow their path. I am most proud of beeing in bussines for 18 years, and the most important is how people feel to belong to KO ZONE.

Getting to where I am today business-wise has been a journey filled with challenges and obstacles. It was not easy, but I persevered by and i was able to move forward. Along the way, I have learned valuable lessons about

I want the world to know that we are “STRONGER THAN ALL” and im not talking only about fighting, im talking that we built a communicaty who is able to continue moving forward dont matter what life put in front out paths . My story is one of determination, growth, and a relentless pursuit of excellence, and I hope to inspire others to pursue their dreams and make a positive impact in their respective fields.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
For sure an Argentinian Barbecue at my house “im an expert” and after that for sure ill show him miami Beaches, Nightlife, everglades and also west coast like marco island or Naples.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
I would like to dedicate my shoutout to my instructors, who helped and inspire me my whole career, Marcelo Roslan Kick Boxing, my father Siro de Vera who teached me that perseverance and discipline are the keys to sucsees . Their unwavering support, mentorship, and encouragement have been instrumental in my success and where I am today. Their guidance and belief in me have inspired and motivated me to push myself further and achieve my goals. I am truly grateful for their contributions to my journey and the positive impact they have had on my life.”
